Killed a Big Rattler.
Mrs. Dmer Hawthorn and Miss
Lora Stearns were out for a horse
back ride between the Stearns
ranch and Frank Hoffman's place
on Crooked river last Tuesday when
a big rattlesnake struck at one of
the horses just missing him a few
inches. Mr. Snake then crawled
back into a big bush but kept
rattling, so the girls located him
again and beat him to death with
, big clubs. He was about three
feet long. In killing him they
broke his rattles until they couldn't
tell the exact number, but judging
from his size they thought about
nine.
Waterspout at Hoffman Ranch.

The "Story of the Cadillac," is one of that mechanical and
commercial advancement which makes for permanency.
The Cadillac Company has never yielded to clamor by
producing that which catered merely to fancy, nor
that which took advantage of the uninformed. On the
contrary it has produced only that which it knew would
give to the purchaser "value received" in abundant measure.
The Cadillac Company has never been obliged to resort
to exaggeration and over-drawn claims to dispose of all
the cars that it could make and more. Its policy has
ever been to under-claim rather than over-claim. It is
gratified that the public accepts its representations at their
full worth; because the public has never been misled and
because the public could always expect and has always
received more than was offered.
